Gordon Lightfoot 

Gordon Meredith Lightfoot, Jr. (Yes...his middle name is Meredith) is a Canadian songwriter born in 1938.

He is arguably most known for his song "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald", a song/story about what happened in that horrible tragedy. Some of his other well-known songs include "Sundown", "Black Day in July", "Early Morning Rain" and many more.

Lightfoot has been having many health issues since 2002, and was even the victim of a death hoax in 2010. However the 81-year-old singer continues to perform to this day.
Gordon Lightfoot must have lied that he doesn't have a middle name a lot throughout his life...I certainly would if my middle name was a female name.

Lowry was getting ticked that Hank kept peeing on his house so he went out to yell at him one day to find that Hank would not listen so readily. Lowry then proceeded to give Hank "The Gordon Lightfoot", which knocked Hank out of his alcoholic trance. Then Hank having been "Gordon Lightfooted" decided to turn his life around and become a porn star.

You think me an old fogeyand an old tory, his thoughtful voice said. I saw three generations since O’Connel’s time. I remember the famine. Do you know that the orange lodges agitated for repeal of the union twenty years before O’Connel did or before the prelates of your communion denounced him as a demagogue? You fenians forget some things. (James Joyce, Ulysses. Penguin Books,1992. p. 38)
